Vacation Day Breakfast with Sister

It is a fact that whenever I have a day off and the Evil Twin and I get in a car together, we somehow end up driving around for f*cking hours and hours just messing about.

It is hysterical.

Today we started off planning to go to Friendly Toast in Cambridge, then ended up going to Sorella's in JP because we sort of thought we'd go visit Grandpapa in rehab. Yeah, I have a Grandpapa in rehab. Woot!

But then the food at Sorella's took f-o-r-e-v-e-r to come out and by the time we were done we had to run off to an appointment (the Evil Twin works for herself and her vacation requests are always denied. Bitch boss right?) and then off again to another appointment. After which we stopped at the area big box so I could get some canning jars (rhubarb!!) and some jar lifters. The Evil Twin bought some yarn and a cap organizer.

Oh and then we had to run back into town to drop some papers off at my Grandpapa's apartment.

By that point I was like oh holy crap, get me the hells outta this car before I vomit so I got dropped off. And the Evil Twin took off because she had a couple more appointments.

Ohhhhh yeah right, this was meant to be about the food at Sorella's. Let me tell you, that place is lucky the food is delicious because it was freezing cold due to the door being left open, and I kept getting a whiff of dirty. You know how when the tables get wiped off with a too-dirty dishrag? Yeah, dirty like that. And then it took waaaaay too long to get our food anyway. People who came in much later than we did got their orders long before us, and then my food came out before the Evil Twin's did. Boo hiss..

Devilham: Usually places like Dots have canning kits. I think that the kits are pretty useful because you get everything all at once. I have been trying to find a rack separately from the kit and I have had no luck, so I have had to improvise.

Alex: Not only is the bean slop covering the polenta but there is a piece of CHEESE under there too!!And how awesome was it to have breakfast with Superman?! Pretty awesome!

So I fell off the blog writing horse, and then the horse ran away and left me to wander in the writers desert. It's hard to write all the time when you do it because you feel like it because sometimes you just don't feel it, y'know?

But then I was invited to join the Boston chapter of Les Dames d'Escoffier and after the annual meeting last night at Forge Baking Company, I remembered that I do actually like writing randomly about food and things related to eating, drinking, and basically being merry.
